Lamboginny says it’s all about giving the prisoners another go at life. “I believe everybody deserves a second chance,” he says.

“I am just a musician crying out loud on behalf of these inmates, and I am humbled and grateful to God that through my voice as a musician, people are coming out to help and also hear the cries of these inmates.”

He is now taking his music beyond Nigerian prisons.

In November, he was invited to Leicester Prison, in the UK, where he performed before hundreds of prisoners.

The singer also recently held a one-day boot camp in a juvenile corrective facility in Lagos, during which he inspired teenagers through a series of lectures and music performances. He says it’s his own way of marking the Christmas season.

“As part of the Christmas celebrations, to mark the season, it is our hope that in conjunction with the Hon. Attorney’s General Office, cases of well-behaved and outstanding boys during their time at the remand homes could be reviewed and, if deemed fit, recommended for release to their parents and guardians,” he says.

“This will serve as a way of encouraging other boys to work hard and be of good behavior.”

He hopes, through his constant engagement with prisoners, to impact lives and help work on the release of prisoners charged with minor offenses.

“The prisons need decongestion as soon as possible,” he says. “There has to be a way.”
